Hello All,
It’s been a busy week for me, and one marking a substantial change in direction. I’ve completed two big assignments - one set of 50 articles and one e-book, so payday wise it’s been a very good week. But a lot more than that has been happening.
To begin with Monday was scan day for my wife and we now know that September will bring with it two baby girls. I have to admit we were both convinced we would be dealing with boys, and I had kind of mentally mapped all the dad and son activities. Now I have to adjust my thinking to figure out what a dad is meant to do with girls. I’m open to help on that by the way:)
Tuesday was also a big day because the phoneline finally got connected in my office, now I can get the internet set up there and free up a lot of space in the house by working from my nice swanky office in town. It also brings an air of professionalism to the whole thing.
Over the next little while I will be concentrating hard on establishing regular customers by way of membership site packages. I have ideas in my head on how to do this, so I’ll keep you all posted. The first test will be a WSO in the warrior forums to see if I can get some interested parties on board.
An interesting thing happened today when a client used my payment page to pay for a job I completed, on returning to merchant he was redirected to a PLR site I put up some time ago. It seems my payment buttons are not working as they should, so the first thing to do is to figure out why that is and what’s going wrong.
The next few months are going to be exciting ones for sure. It will be a pleasure to have you along for the ride.

I’ve had a few emails recently asking about why the blog hasn’t been updated in a little while. Truth is I’ve been working on something quite big. Extremely big in fact. It’s a few days away from complete, but when it is, it’s going to be huge. I’m talking $1000/week stuff which is my goal for online income(not least because it’s about $1500 in local money and replaces my current income). Anyone can do it, it doesn’t rely on having any special skills and will only take about an hour per day. Sound interesting?
Stay Tuned.

Hi folks,
I hope you all had a fantastic Christmas and New Year. Mine…could have gone better. I had my family up to the lakes near where I live to share a Christmas with my wifes family. I got to meet my two youngest Nephews for the first time(One from Australia, one from my hometown of Timaru here in NZ) and everything should have gone well.
Then I heard one of the boys was sick, then his mum got it….then everyone did. The writing was kind of on the wall. However, as Christmas Eve came and went I allowed myself to get my hopes up. Foolish me…..
At 2am on Christmas day I was carrying my wife to the bathroom where she stayed lodged for around 4 hours. She couldn’t use the one in the house because my sister in law was rather busy in there. The bug hit me around 6:30am, and two of my nieces at about the same time. I spent 90% of Christmas day in bed, and the remainder alternatively sitting on or kneeling in front of the toilet. Fantastic.
Throw in a twisted ankle, a collapsed tent and a dose of flu and things could have been more fun. But by New Years the weather was beautiful and we had the lazy lake side holiday we were all waiting for.
The news perked up a little more when I got back online and found that my Bread and Butter Guide seemed to have been well received, I had been paid for two jobs I finished before I went and I got a rather nice Christmas Bonus from two of the marketers I produce work for regularly.
This is the great thing about online Marketing. For the first time in…..possibly ever….I have taken two weeks off work and I come back to find people paying me while I am away. Sure, it’s not the riches that some of the more optimistic sales letters promise, but it’s something. It’s my start. And I am grateful for it.
